Big Jeff Pfeffer's No-Hitter

DateMay 8, 1907
ScoreReds 0, Doves 6
TypeNo hitter

The Boston Doves held the Cincinnati Reds without a hit on May 8, 1907, winning 6–0. Big Jeff Pfeffer started the game for the Boston Doves.

It was played at South End Grounds III in Boston. The announced attendance was 2,668. Del Mason started for the Cincinnati Reds. Bob Emslie umpired behind the plate. It was played in daylight, as every game was: the first night game in the major leagues came in 1935.

The game log records each side's starting pitcher rather than everyone who appeared, so where a no-hitter was finished by a second pitcher this page names the man who began it.
